BioCardia Letter to Stockholders on 2026 Priorities and Strategic Opportunities

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia®, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today announced that the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Peter Altman, issued the following letter to shareholders. Dear Fellow Shareholders, Upon completion of our recent capital raise, I am providing this update on our strategy, top priorities, and business development opportunities to ensure understanding and appreciation of what is ahead. This quarter, with Japan’s Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Agency’s (PMDA) support for potential approval of CardiAMP® Cell Therapy for the treatment of ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), the submission for approval is a top priority. This effort is synergistic with our other important programs. In Japan, we have the opportunity to help patients having few additional treatment options and build the business with our first in class CardiAMP autologous minimally invasive cardiac cell therapy for ischemic HFrEF. There are an estimated 300,000 patients in Japan with ischemic heart failure. We expect the initial approval by PMDA would focus on enabling treatment for a subgroup of 20,000 patients. This is a compelling business opportunity, as previous cardiac cell therapies in Japan for treatment of chronic ischemic heart failure have had reimbursement at $124,000 per procedure. The submission for approval planned for end of 2026 is a meaningful milestone that could be transformative for our business. Strategic partners are expected to view the completed submission as a sign that our product will be in the market soon. The work to be done to complete the submission is significant as it involves ensuring strict regulatory audit readiness for our CardiAMP Cell Therapy System product candidate. Japan is a trusted Reference Country and a Primary Member of MDSAP Approval in Japan enables expedited registration based on reference country approvals in other regions of the world. Countries in Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East often designate Japan as a trusted “Reference Country.” These countries will often bypass secondary clinical testing, lower their local evaluation timelines, and reduce registration fees for potential distribution partners. Japan is also a primary member of the Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP), alongside the United States, Canada, Australia, and Brazil. When our manufacturing plant passes a single, comprehensive MDSAP audit satisfying Japan’s PMD Act requirements, that audit report is accepted by other participating nations, avoiding the need for multiple independent factory inspections. CardiAMP HF II Trial Enrollment in USA We are also driving to enroll the confirmatory CardiAMP HF II Trial in the United States, which the FDA has said may support Premarket Approval. Each of the four active study centers has patients in the queue and we are working to onboard additional centers. The physicians and nurses on the clinical research teams at our U.S. centers are greatly interested in travelling to Japan to train and support their colleagues when they are ready to begin CardiAMP cell therapy procedures. Physicians from Japan may also come to observe CardiAMP HF II clinical cases and train on the procedures in advance of potential future approval in Japan. Pipeline-in-a-Product: Local Delivery to the Heart Our cell therapy programs utilize our Helix Transendocardial Delivery Catheter (Helix™) and our Heart3D™ fusion imaging platform (Heart3D). This system addresses the single greatest bottleneck facing cardiac cell, gene, and protein regenerative medicine today: inefficient localized delivery. By pairing our tissue-engaging helical needle with our partnered Heart3D fusion imaging platform, we have a therapeutic-agnostic infrastructure capable of servicing over fifty biotherapeutic programs currently in development. A number of these programs are in Japan, and Japan PMDA has already advised BioCardia that other developers would be enabled to use Helix with the approval of CardiAMP cell therapy. Worldwide, we have active early discussions with eight gene and cell therapies today intended for cardiac indications. No other delivery platform is as advanced or has close to the clinical experience that Helix has. Pipeline-in-a-Product: Off the Shelf MSC Therapies Our allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy platform is targeted towards cardiac and pulmonary indications where we have two FDA approved Investigational New Drug Applications (INDs), with anti-inflammatory mechanisms of action having potential applications across multiple high-value indications. Our manufacturing of clinical grade cells and supportive intellectual property enables us to partner in multiple indications that can be independently developed and partnered for value creation with other pharmaceutical developers. Japan PMDA and FDA have approved mesenchymal stem cell therapies for graft versus host disease, although the approval in Japan came ten years before the approval in the USA. In addition to partnering on distribution of CardiAMP, any significant partnership for our secured pipeline assets would be transformative for our business. Financial Strategy and Capital Allocation BioCardia has always had a modest cash burn for a publicly traded company. The recent clean financing closed last week should enable us to complete the submission of CardiAMP HF to Japan PMDA, enroll in CardiAMP HF II, and continue discussions around our pipeline opportunities. We are looking forward to revised SEC regulations later this year that may enable easier access to capital for smaller reporting companies. Near-Term Milestones and Outlook We are entering a period of high-impact catalysts: Shonin Submission of CardiAMP Cell Therapy to Japan PMDA (Q4 2026)Continued CardiAMP Cell Therapy development in the USA with FDA engagementStrategic partnership / licensing progress in Helix/Heart3D for cell, gene, and protein delivery to the heartStrategic partnerships / licensing around our clinical allogeneic MSC platform We believe these milestones create a compelling opportunity for value creation, particularly considering public market precedents for companies with similar clinical profiles and regulatory positioning. Conclusion BioCardia is focused on potential near term regulatory approval for a significant unmet need in Japan, a mission that is synergistic with our other efforts. We are a focused, capital-efficient organization advancing therapeutic solutions to address enormous unmet need. We have differentiated platforms, significant protective intellectual property, multiple shots on goal, and a clear path to near-term value inflection. We remain deeply committed to advancing therapies for life-threatening and chronic conditions while delivering on our responsibility to our stockholders. We appreciate your continued support and look forward to updating you on our progress in the months ahead. Sincerely, Peter Altman, PhD, FAHA Chief Executive Officer, BioCardia Inc.

FDA Confirms CardiAMP HF II May Support Premarket Approval of CardiAMP Cell Therapy for Ischemic HFrEF

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia®, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today announced receipt of FDA minutes from its Q-Sub Meeting with FDA Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) on the CardiAMP Cell Therapy System for the treatment of ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The meeting minutes from FDA confirm that the ongoing CardiAMP Heart Failure II Trial may support Premarket Approval (PMA) for market clearance. PMA is the most rigorous type of device marketing application required by the agency. It is used to establish the safety and effectiveness of high-risk medical devices prior to them being approved for public use. FDA had previously indicated that they typically like to see two well designed trials for approval, particularly in large clinical indications such as HFrEF, where there are potentially over one million patients who could benefit from CardiAMP Cell Therapy in the United States. FDA has also previously demonstrated that they consider the CardiAMP Cell Therapy System safe, as this FDA determination is required to enable the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid to reimburse in the CardiAMP HF trials. “Patients with ischemic Heart Failure of reduced Ejection Fraction are in great need for therapeutic options,” said Peter Altman, PhD, BioCardia’s Chief Executive Officer. “FDA recognizes this need and the strengths in our completed CardiAMP HF clinical data to be the first of two trials to support Premarket Approval.” About CardiAMP Cell Therapy Granted FDA Breakthrough designation, CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure intended to increase capillary density and reduce tissue fibrosis of myocardial tissue to address microvascular dysfunction. Japan Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Agency has indicated that the clinical results from three completed clinical trials for the treatment of ischemic heart failure likely provide sufficient evidence of safety and efficacy to support a successful submission for approval. Clinical development of the CardiAMP Cell Therapy for heart failure is supported by the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund and is reimbursed by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

BioCardia Announces Japan PMDA Record Of Advice Supports Regulatory Submission For Approval Of CardiAMP Cell Therapy For Ischemic Heart Failure

Submission Anticipated in Q4 2026SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia®, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today reported the Consultation Record from Japan’s Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Agency (PMDA) supports submission for regulatory approval of the CardiAMP® cell therapy for the treatment of ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) based on the Company’s three completed clinical trials of this therapy in HFrEF. PMDA’s Consultation Record confirms alignment on remaining questions to address before, and as part of the submission, for regulatory approval for ischemic HFrEF patients with elevated biomarkers of heart stress (NTproBNP) on stable guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT). PMDA noted that the positive outcomes seen in the trial were credible. It is estimated that 20,000 of the 300,000 patients in Japan would initially be eligible for this therapy. PMDA requested BioCardia demonstrate that enrolled patients were on GDMT and not eligible for revascularization procedures, required per CardiAMP HF protocol, and provide additional details for each incidence of all-cause death, heart transplantation or left ventricular assist device implantation. “PMDA’s recognition of the urgent unmet clinical need in HFrEF and their support of this novel therapy is valued,” said BioCardia Chief Executive Dr. Peter Altman. “We believe the clinical package prepared for this submission will be sufficient to support approval.” As part of the submission review for approval of CardiAMP Cell Therapy, the Agency requests post-marketing study plans including the criteria for patient selection, the clinical decision-making framework, and appropriate medical infrastructure and specialist involvement. BioCardia has been guided to collaborate with relevant Japanese academic societies to establish proper-use guidelines and sufficiently consider product training, proctoring, and post market surveillance. BioCardia’s timeline for PMDA submission is seven months. BioCardia plans to submit with a Designated Marketing Authorization Holder as the optimal pathway for regulatory submission, regulatory review, and to initiate commercialization of the CardiAMP Cell Therapy System while conducting the post market study in Japan. The PMDA review process will be rigorous, and BioCardia believes the documentation to support review is in good shape. BioCardia is ISO13485 compliant for the design, manufacture, and distribution of medical devices for cardiovascular procedures, including catheters for use in delivery of therapeutic agents directly to the heart, and currently manufactures FDA cleared products. When PMDA concludes its technical assessment and recommends approval, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) ultimately issues the certificate enabling commercialization.

BioCardia Announces CardiAMP Chronic Myocardial Ischemia Trial Results Presented at EuroPCR Showed Durable Improvements in Exercise Tolerance with Reduced Angina Frequency

– Positive CardiAMP CMI Trial open-label cohort results demonstrated opportunity for locally delivered cell therapy to enhance therapeutic options for patients with severely symptomatic refractory angina and validate continued clinical development – Novel therapeutic approach targets a critically important unmet medical need for patients who have debilitated quality-of-life and have exhausted all available treatment options SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia, Inc. (NASDAQ: BCDA), a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today announced the oral presentation of the results of the CardiAMP® Cell Therapy in Chronic Myocardial Ischemia Trial (CardiAMP CMI) preliminary open label cohort at EuroPCR, a leading interventional cardiovascular medicine conference held in Paris. The presentation was made by Dr. Amish Raval, M.D., Professor of Medicine at University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health. Results presented by Dr. Raval, on behalf of the CardiAMP CMI Investigators, showed that the minimally invasive CardiAMP Cell Therapy procedure was well tolerated with no treatment emergent major adverse cardiac events and patients demonstrated positive clinical outcomes including increased exercise tolerance and reduced frequency of angina episodes with the autologous cell therapy up through 2 years follow-up. Prior to treatment, all patients were on guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and had received all available percutaneous and/or surgical options as appropriate for their medical condition. Patients experienced increased exercise tolerance, improving by an average of 179 seconds, which persisted for the two-year study follow-up. Angina episodes were reduced by an average of 82% by six-months after treatment. Dr. Raval’s presentation is here: EuroPCR2026. “Chronic ischemic heart disease results in considerable limitations of daily life activities due to chest discomfort, shortness of breath, and related disabling symptoms despite optimal medical therapy,” said Carl Pepine, MD, MACC, Professor of Medicine, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, University of Florida at Gainesville. “A cell-based approach, added to this medical therapy, has potential to better manage these symptoms and improve the quality of life.”  “We are thankful for the physician scientists who contributed their great experience to this program as well as the patients who participated,” said Peter Altman, PhD, BioCardia President and CEO. “These results support this CardiAMP cell therapy approach which has potential to help patients suffering from refractory angina. To our knowledge, only cell therapy has had a positive impact on both exercise tolerance and angina episodes in these patients.” About Chronic Myocardial Ischemia with Refractory Angina Chronic myocardial ischemia occurs in the setting of coronary artery disease when there is reduced blood flow to the heart. This causes angina, a type of chest pain which is characterized as refractory angina when this pain cannot be controlled by a combination of optimal medical therapy, angioplasty or bypass surgery, and is estimated to impact 600,000 to 1.8 million patients in the United States. Up to 15% of patients who have ischemia or angina and undergo cardiac catheterization are suboptimal candidates for conventional revascularization. Although prognosis of refractory angina has improved in recent years, patients with refractory angina experience a significantly impaired quality of life with disproportionately high utilization of healthcare services. These observations reflect the great need for new therapies for these patients.  About the CardiAMP Cell Therapy Program Designated by the FDA as a Breakthrough Therapy for Ischemic Heart Failure, CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure to potentially stimulate the body’s natural healing response. CardiAMP Cell Therapy incorporates three proprietary elements not previously utilized in investigational cardiac cell therapy: a pre-procedural cell analysis for patient selection, a high target dosage of cells, and a proprietary delivery system that has been shown to be safer than other intramyocardial delivery systems and exponentially more successful in cell retention. The CardiAMP cell therapy trials for the indications of both chronic myocardial ischemia and ischemic heart failure are covered by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid for both treatment and control procedures.  CAUTION – Limited by United States law to investigational use.  About BioCardia® BioCardia, Inc., headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, is a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease.

BioCardia and FDA Align on Helix Transendocardial Delivery Catheter Clearance Pathways

SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia®, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today announced the outcome of its Pre-Submission Meeting with FDA on the Helix Transendocardial Delivery Catheter System (Helix).   FDA agreed that there are two pathways for Helix marketing clearance and raised no concerns on Helix safety data, device performance, or compatibility with general classes of agents. FDA’s preferred route of Helix approval was simultaneous with the approval of the CardiAMP cell therapy system for the treatment of heart failure. FDA also suggested a follow-on pre-submission incorporating agency advice could enable Helix approval via the DeNovo pathway.   “We see these pathways as synergistic and are thankful for the FDA’s time and responsiveness,” said BioCardia Chief Executive Officer Peter Altman, PhD. “We aim to deliver on both pathways as an independent Helix market clearance should enhance development and commercial partnering for other high value investigational cell, gene, and protein therapeutics.” About Helix Transendocardial Delivery Catheter The Helix transendocardial delivery catheter is an enabling platform for minimally invasive targeted delivery of therapeutic and diagnostic agents to the heart intramyocardially. It enables agents to be delivered precisely within the heart with superior retention over other therapeutic delivery modalities, and to many regions of the heart that other delivery methods cannot reach. The Helix includes a specialized small distal helical needle which engages the heart tissue from within the chamber of the heart and provides stability within the dynamic beating heart to safely enable agent delivery.  About CardiAMP Cell Therapy Granted FDA Breakthrough designation, CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure intended to increase capillary density and reduce tissue fibrosis of myocardial tissue to address microvascular dysfunction.

BioCardia Files Request for Meeting With FDA to Discuss Accelerated Approval Pathway for CardiAMP® System in Ischemic Heart Failure

SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia®, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today reported submission to United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the CardiAMP HF clinical study data and on its plans to meet with the FDA to discuss the accelerated approval pathway for the CardiAMP® System for ischemic chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). This meeting request is in line with previous guidance and BioCardia expects to have the meeting during this quarter. The meeting will be held under BioCardia’s FDA Breakthrough Designation for the CardiAMP System. The key objectives of the meeting are to obtain FDA feedback on the acceptability of BioCardia’s proposed submission for approval based on the safety seen in the CardiAMP HF Trial, the well-characterized clinical response data for the 125 ischemic HFrEF patients enrolled into the trial, and the low risk and high potential benefit profile in the subgroup with elevated biomarkers of heart stress participating in the trial. For the CardiAMP HF trial subgroup with elevated biomarkers of heart stress, the cells delivered have shown meaningful benefit for these higher-risk patients already on stable American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology guideline directed medical therapy. Demonstrated benefits in the subgroup, in addition to benefits the patients received from guideline directed medical therapy over two years, include an additional 47% relative risk reduction in all cause cardiac death, 37% relative risk reduction in non-fatal major adverse cardiac events (stroke, myocardial infarction, and hospitalization), and meaningful improvements in quality of life (p=0.04). The latest results from this study were presented at the THT (Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics) 2026 Annual Meeting and are available on the BioCardia website.

BioCardia Late Breaking Echocardiography Clinical Results from CardiAMP HF Trial Presented at Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics (THT)

Echocardiography outcomes show treated patients having reduced negative remodeling of heart volumesSUNNYVALE, Calif., March 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a developer of cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today reported late breaking echocardiography results from its Phase III clinical trial for ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), which affects millions of patients in the United States.    The clinical results were presented by Dr. Amish Raval, M.D., Professor of Medicine at University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health and CardiAMP HF Trial National Co-Principal Investigator, in the late breaking clinical trial oral presentation session of the Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics (THT) on behalf of the CardiAMP HF Investigators. The presentation was titled: Autologous Cell Therapy May Curb Pathological Ventricular Remodeling in Chronic Ischemic HFrEF Patients Selected for Favorable Cell Characteristics – Late Breaking Echocardiography Results from the CardiAMP HF Trial. Dr. Raval reported that patients receiving the autologous CardiAMP cell therapy under investigation demonstrated positive evidence of decreased pathological left ventricular remodeling over time compared to patients not receiving the treatment. These results correlated to findings for the trial primary and key secondary endpoints of reduced fatal and non-fatal major adverse cardiovascular events and improved quality of life measures for treated patients. Echocardiography outcomes were measured by the blinded echo cardiography core laboratory at the Yale University Cardiovascular Research Group. The Yale core laboratory measured both left ventricular end diastolic volume, when the heart ventricle is fully dilated (p = 0.06), and left ventricular end systolic volume, when the heart is fully contracted (p=0.09). For the prespecified subgroup of patients having elevated biomarkers of heart stress, the differences between the treated and control patients were both clinically meaningful ( >20ml/m2 and 15 ml/m2, respectively) and statistically significant (p = 0.02 and p = 0.01, respectively). “In patients with baseline elevated NTproBNP levels, a biomarker of myocardial stress, CardiAMP treatment is associated with less adverse cardiac remodeling according to core-lab measured left ventricular volumes,” said Wilson Tang, MD, Professor of Medicine, Research Director of Heart Failure and Transplant, at Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland Ohio, and member of the Executive Steering Committee for the CardiAMP HF trials. “The burden of heart failure continues to grow, cardiac ischemia dominates the cause, and the impact of current pharmaceuticals remains limited,” said Carl Pepine, MD, MACC, Professor of Medicine at University of Florida at Gainesville, and Co-National Principal Investigator for the CardiAMP HF trial. Today’s results from the CardiAMP-HF cell therapy trial are promising and show the potential of optimally targeting subgroups for treatment.” BioCardia believes these results provide additional evidence in support of benefit for the CardiAMP Cell Therapy for patients with ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction. Reduced ventricular size in ischemic heart failure has long been recognized as highly prognostic for more positive long-term outcomes for patients.1, 2 Today’s presentation is available on the BioCardia website: THT2026 CardiAMP HF About CardiAMP Autologous Cell TherapyGranted FDA Breakthrough designation, CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure intended to increase capillary density and reduce tissue fibrosis of myocardial tissue to address microvascular dysfunction. Clinical development of the CardiAMP Cell Therapy for heart failure is supported by the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund and is reimbursed by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). CAUTION – Limited by United States law to investigational use.  About BioCardia® BioCardia, Inc., headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, is a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease.

BioCardia Files Pre-Submission for FDA Approval of Helix™ Transendocardial Delivery Catheter for Therapeutic and Diagnostic Agent Delivery to the Heart

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a developer of cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today reported it has completed its Pre-Submission to FDA under its Q-Submission program for the approval of its Helix Transendocardial Delivery Catheter (“Helix”) for intramyocardial therapeutic and diagnostic agent delivery.    The data supporting safety and effectiveness for the Helix Pre-Submission is from fifteen well-controlled clinical trials of cell and gene therapy delivery to the heart using Helix, where patients were enrolled in three primary cardiac clinical indications. The Helix Pre Submission has been made under the CardiAMP Cell Therapy System FDA Breakthrough Designation, which the Helix underlies. BioCardia seeks to align with FDA on the regulatory pathway and timing for approval in the next 45 days. An application for market clearance could soon follow. “This Pre-Submission and discussion with FDA should lead to our Helix catheter being the first approved transendocardial delivery catheter system in the United States,” said Peter Altman, PhD, BioCardia’s President and CEO. “FDA clearance of Helix will streamline the future approvals of BioCardia’s autologous and allogeneic cell therapies for the treatment of Heart Failure and Chronic Myocardial Ischemia. Approval should also reduce development risk for biopharmaceutical and biotechnology partners seeking to employ our best-in-class minimally invasive delivery technology for cardiovascular cell, gene, and protein development programs aiming to address enormous unmet medical needs.”   About the Helix Transendocardial Delivery CatheterThe Helix transendocardial delivery catheter is an enabling platform for minimally invasive targeted delivery of therapeutic and diagnostic agents to the heart intramyocardially. It enables agents to be delivered precisely within the heart with superior retention over other therapeutic delivery modalities, and to many regions of the heart that other delivery methods cannot reach. The Helix includes a specialized small distal helical needle which engages the heart tissue from within the chamber of the heart and provides stability within the dynamic beating heart to safely enable agent delivery.  The Helix delivery catheter is intended to be used by interventional cardiologists, electrophysiologists, and cardiac surgeons trained to perform endovascular and transendocardial procedures. In independent reviews of clinical experience with Helix relative to other transendocardial delivery catheters, it has shown superior procedural safety1 and in pre-clinical studies has demonstrated a three-fold increase in effective dosing compared to open surgical access intramyocardial biotherapeutic delivery and eighteen-fold increase compared to intracoronary artery infusion2. The Helix catheter is further enhanced by BioCardia’s FDA approved Morph® DNA™ steerable introducer product, which physicians use to navigate the Helix with superior control in the heart.
